Whether it’s an active team challenge, a drop-in station or something creative to do together, the right activity turns your company summer party into something a mixed crowd of guests can really join in with.
A summer party can bring colleagues together, celebrate achievements or simply make room for a break together. To get the programme right, you should clarify the number of guests, the venue, the time slot and how involved you’d like your guests to be, including whether everyone should join in together or dip into stations as they please.
Team challenges, rallies, lawn curling, creative tasks or drop-in activities all work well. You’ll find more active ideas among our outdoor team events. If the activity will form just one part of the party, explore our party activities to find the right option.
Even in summer, you need to plan for the weather. We’ll check with you what space is needed, how the activity fits around catering and the schedule, and what alternative might be possible if the weather is unsuitable.
These are the six activities teams choose most often at teamio for a summer party. They differ in location and space, and in how actively guests take part.
from €59When all guests should join in: five challenges from a pool of modules, rotating teams, a shotgun start and a grand awards ceremony with a trophy or medals. If it rains, the stations are covered with gazebos.
from €39A hands-on station outdoors: longbows, four competition modes and balloon shooting as the finale. It runs on company grounds or in a park; covered shooting areas make it weatherproof, and beginners hit the target after the briefing.
from €59For guests who’d rather game than sweat: retro gaming on the N64, a Carrera track and remote-controlled karts in three challenges. The format works indoors and outdoors, and no previous experience is needed.
from €59The action highlight for a summer party or company outing: teams build soapboxes, show them off for the applause meter and race down the ramp in a relay. You need space for the pit area and the race track.
from €69Teams build a raft and test it in a regatta; you need a suitable body of water.
from €49Barefoot from station to station: sandcastle building, a water relay and coconut boules in small groups. Possible at a beach club, on a lakeside or on company grounds even without sand; there’s an indoor alternative if the weather is bad.
31 team events
from €59Wheelbarrow course, hay bale run, milking contest and horseshoe throwing: teams collect points in proper farmyard challenges. The team with the most points takes the golden pitchfork home.
from €49Sandcastle building, a water relay and coconut boules: in small groups you go barefoot from station to station, to a soundtrack of summer hits. We bring the sun cream – safety first!
from €39Longbows with no sights and no technical gadgetry, four ways to compete and a balloon-shooting finale: after a briefing and some warm-up shots, even beginners hit the bullseye. Every team gets its own protective gear.
from €69Build your own cajóns from high-quality kits, then play rhythms in several parts as a team, guided by drum coaches. You can take your box drum home.
from €49Las Vegas without the risk: at authentic tables you bet, bluff and sweat it out with play money, playing roulette, poker, craps and blackjack.
from €59Golf without a golf course: clubs in hand, you head over hill and dale, with team tasks such as the golf ball pipeline and ladder golf waiting along the way. In the end, the best team handicap wins.
from €39All the atmosphere of the pub, darts included: teams play 301 through a preliminary round and a knockout stage for the title of company darts champion, while a cheeky hosting team comments on every throw.
from €55Fly drones, send robotic balls racing each other or steer racing cars using an iPad: in this tournament, teams compete using VR, robotics and AI. You choose the stations.
from €35Every team builds its own section of a giant chain reaction out of dominoes, LEGO and Kapla planks. After the countdown, down it all goes – in the meeting room, the conference hotel or the office.
from €79Design a flag, christen your boat, start paddling: the teams race each other in dragon boats while a drummer sets the beat. The winning team gets Crémant, and the flags go on to decorate the canteen.
from €49Steer DJI drones through an obstacle course (touching an obstacle adds a time penalty), guide Sphero balls using an iPad and build a drone even though only half the team can see the instructions.
from €49Everyone gets a real djembe, and our drum coaches lead you step by step from a body percussion warm-up to the big final arrangement. Nobody needs any musical experience.
from €49Sherwood Forest by torchlight: after a short briefing from our trainers, even beginners pick up a longbow and take on the other teams.
from €69From wooden planks, hemp ropes, securing straps and barrels, the teams build their own raft, hoist the pirate flag and put on a show to christen it, then take to the water for the regatta.
from €55Backpack, walkie-talkie and GPS device: teams hunt for hidden caches, solve puzzles based on their surroundings and tackle challenges together along the way, whether through the undergrowth or the urban jungle.
from €59Teams line up along six rods inside inflatable human table football arenas and play a tournament, with commentators, football hits and Mexican waves for company. The winners walk away with the golden cup.
from €49Build company cars, pull off an emergency operation in the Emergency Room or raise a tower: you put your course together from over 20 tasks. And the only way to get it done is together.
from €49iPad, walkie-talkie and a virtual city map: teams hunt for points, complete tasks and answer questions about your company. Fifteen minutes before the end, the live scores disappear – and that’s when it gets really tense.
from €49Your own table football championship: every team founds a club, name and all, then battles through the group stage and knockout rounds while commentators guide you through the tournament like a Saturday-night football show.
from €79Your very own table football table is built from a kit, then christened in a tournament. The fastest team to finish building gets to play at home in the opening match, and the tables can be donated afterwards.
from €49Each artists’ collective paints its own canvas around your theme. Then the canvases come together as one large artwork for your company – with a bird’s-eye drone photo, if conditions allow.
from €49Write the script, pick costumes and false beards, shoot, edit: every film crew makes its own short film with an iPad and a collection of props. At the end, all the films are screened at your very own film festival, nominations included.
from €35As a new Europol task force, the teams hunt a master thief: armed with an agent’s case, a puzzle box and a postcard under UV light, they solve puzzles against the clock – and must tread carefully, because their adversary is hot on their heels.
from €59A large CRT television with an N64, a Carrera track and remote-controlled Mario Karts: across three challenges, teams go head to head in races that mix retro nostalgia with full-throttle action. The winning team gets to pop the corks.
from €39Quizmaster, wireless buzzers and company-specific questions: teams guess their way through short rounds and funny video challenges. Points are paid out in sweets, but anyone who nibbles spoils their appetite for victory.
from €39A delicate touch and clever tactics: the teams take turns sliding their curling stones towards the target circles, on grass, asphalt or office carpet. One well-placed stone knocks the opposing stones out of the lane.
from €129Sightseeing on Segways: after a safety briefing and a test ride, you set off through town in your helmet, with puzzles, a cone course and tasks you have to dismount for along the way. At the finish, everyone gets a Segway diploma.
from €59Spanners first, then speed: every team builds its soapbox car from a kit, gives it a look all its own and shows it off to see how it scores on the applause meter. Then it’s down the ramp for qualifying and a relay race, and a bubbly shower waits at the end.
from €49In the “Tower of Power”, a team builds a tower using a special crane rig, and the other tasks only work out when everyone pulls together. Every group has its own trainer and plans its strategy before trying it out.
from €49You choose three challenges, for example lawn curling, XXL Jenga, CrossBoccia, ladder golf or a drone race. All teams start at the same time at different stations, and the scoring is done digitally via the event app.
from €49Two disciplines, one tournament: in disc golf the metal baskets have to be hit with as few throws as possible, while on the e-scooter course every second counts. Helmets and protective pads are compulsory.

You can plan the activity as a shared programme activity or as a drop-in station, depending on how you’d like your guests to take part.
We check the space, the ground, access, noise levels and how the activity fits into the existing set-up of your summer party.
For outdoor activities, we clarify in advance which conditions apply and whether the plan allows for adapting the activity, providing shelter or offering an indoor alternative.
Set-up, briefing, the activity itself and the changeovers are timed to work with the catering, speeches and the rest of the programme.
Tell us the date, venue, number of guests, time slot and the atmosphere you’re after. We’ll suggest activities that work well as part of your company party.
Answers on activities, group size, venue, weather and fitting an activity into your summer party.
Alongside food, music and conversation, team challenges, rallies, creative tasks, games or drop-in stations can add to the programme. Choose what suits your number of guests, your venue and how involved you’d like your guests to be.
Look for activities that are easy to pick up and give guests flexibility in how they join in, such as team competitions, skill challenges or quiz and creative stations. For a mixed group of guests, choose the activity level carefully.
Yes, many activities can be built in as a scheduled activity or a drop-in station. We agree the space needed, the time slot, set-up and take-down, and how it all links up with the venue and catering.
Depending on the activity, your company grounds, parking areas or event venues with suitable outdoor spaces could work. Access, usable space, ground, power, toilets and any permits you may need should be checked.
Depending on the activity, the programme can be adapted, held under cover or moved to suitable indoor spaces. The exact alternative depends on the activity and the venue and should be agreed in advance.
Activities can be planned for small teams or larger company parties. What matters is the space, the number of stations, the flow of people through them and how many people should take part at the same time.
Popular summer dates and suitable venues are often booked well in advance. Once you have an idea of the date, guest numbers and location, enquire about the activity too.
Many activities offer different roles and activity levels. Let us know about any special requirements early, so we can assess suitability and agree any possible adjustments with you, making clear what they involve.
